So, I've started playing with a blues trio - gtr, bass and drums. I recently picked up a nice 70s mahagony shell Premier kit - 20, 16 and 12, and I plan to use my HiFi snare with the kit. So I'm on the hunt for a cymbal set to go with the kit. Normally I'd use Paiste Signatures but they're a little 'modern' sounding. Maybe I'm just too used to how they sound having used them for years now.
Anyway, I thought I might treat myself to a new set and was looking for any thoughts you folks might have on decent deals. I'm really looking for darker sounding and lighter weights. I'd like hats, ride and crash.
So I'm looking at the Masterworks Troy, Zultan Dark Matter, Istanbul Mehmet IMC ranges from Thomann (I live in Europe). Zultan look to have a really nice range.
If anyone has any experience of these cymbas or any other recommendations please let me know - I'm all ears.
